Rehabilitations came to life since people saw a need of reducing the number of drug addicts in the entire society. This was one of the wisest ideas as it geared to help bring up better leaders for the future. People now know their hope of getting their loved ones or family members sober is just a call away. However, recovering addicts are the people who need the rehabilitations’ services or help. However, there is a thin line between a rehabilitation counselor and a recovering addict. This is because many recovering addicts relate well with counselors that have been once addicts. These counselors often narrate their stories and negative impacts faced during their addiction period. In addition, many counselors are always prone to getting back to their old ways of lives if they do not keep on attending the recovering addicts sessions or classes (Chan 201). By this, they have many challenges that might lead them back to their old ways. however, they need to stand the challenges in order to be free from the addiction.

Additionally, “once an alcoholic always an alcoholic” appeared in different ways but still expressed the same meaning. This is because the interviewee kept on saying that the addicts would best relate to a counselor who has passed through the same path, even once or a couple of times. The addicts think that or know that by having such kinds of counselors they would understand those more and relate with them more.
